The public federal record on N1892A, read the way a buyer, lender or insurer reads it: FAA registration, prior tail numbers keyed on the serial number, reuse of the tail number, recent registry filings, and the NTSB accident record under this and every earlier registration.
Valid registration to Lesmeister Dean J, an individual, certificate issued May 9, 2025, expires May 31, 2032. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated June 24, 1957, 5 years after the 1952 manufacture year. A re-issued certificate commonly follows export and re-import, a rebuild, or a return to the register after cancellation. The cause is documented in the FAA aircraft records file, which the full report obtains. [1]
